At the point where the Bulls were picking, who else was there to take but Noah? The only other probables were maybe Rodney Stuckey or Al Thornton. Stuckey is a nice player but he's another guard which they didn't need. The argument could be made that Thornton should have been the pick there but I don't think Noah was a bad one. There just wasn't much left to choose from.
